Spurs send Harry Kane on loan to Leicester

SPURS have let Harry Kane go on loan to Leicester until the end of the season.

The 19-year-old was recalled by Tottenham from Norwich last month, but couldn't get a game and has been given the chance to get more first team experience elsewhere.

Kane was previously on loan at Millwall last season and made an impact at the Den, scoring nine goals.

And Kane could help Leicester, who are fifth in the Championship, with their push for promotion.

Foxes manager Nigel Pearson told BBC Radio Leicester: "Hopefully he will bring goals and a fresh impetus. It keeps the competition really keen.

"He's a player we know quite a lot about and I am delighted.

"If you are going to bring players in on loan they have to have a hunger for success and I am confident we have another player coming into our ranks who will bring a lot of positive qualities to the squad.
